XN0121400L

Overview

The XN01214 is a composite transistor device manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components, designed for switching and digital circuits. It integrates two NPN epitaxial planar transistors with built-in bias resistors into a single SC-74A (Mini5-G1) package. The component features a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 50 V and a continuous collector current rating of 100 mA. Key electrical characteristics include a minimum DC current gain (hFE) of 80 at 5 mA, a transition frequency of 150 MHz, and a total power dissipation capability of 300 mW. The internal configuration utilizes an emitter-coupled topology with a resistance ratio between the two elements.

Feature Summary

• Integrates two NPN transistors with built-in bias resistors in a single package to reduce mounting area and assembly costs.

Applications

• Switching circuits
• Digital logic circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official Panasonic documentation to confirm packaging format and compliance status. Confirm the product lifecycle stage, as this series may be subject to maintenance or discontinuation plans. Ensure that the selected variant matches the required RoHS directive compliance for the intended manufacturing process.

Selection Notes

Select this component when space-constrained designs require dual NPN switching functions with integrated biasing. Verify that the 50 V collector-emitter voltage and 100 mA current ratings exceed the circuit's peak operational requirements. Consider the 300 mW total power dissipation limit and ensure adequate thermal management within the SC-74A package constraints.
